Some tidying to be done ...

ChrisNI · 03-26-2012, 02:27 PM

This may be a stupid question, but im going to tidy my hubs/calipers at the weekend.

Want to do the caplipers and hubs in a nice bright silver, keeping an OEM look. So my question is, to those who have done it, whats the colour code you used and brand of paint and what all did you? A picture would be great also.

Also need new wheel nuts as mine are a bit rusty. Wheres the best place to get them, simply BMW? Any idea how much?

Thanks, Chris

Hammerite Smooth Silver for your hubs and calipers.

Black wheel bolts are available from loads of places on the internet - you need:

* M12 x 1.5
* 17mm hex head
* 60 deg taper
* 28mm shaft
